That is the fundamental problem. The people who use AI look at it as a solution to a problem, which is why it is so popular in mundane jobs or with students. It isn't supposed to be how George R.R. Martin finishes his book or they find a great way to add a season of The Wire.
maybe just sample sale but I feel like Reddit is always talking about Law Abiding Citizen for some reason like it's a real movie Donnie Darko and Eternal Sunshine were also always movies for film nerds but are still movies where you see for 16 and they're the coolest movie ever
4 Months, 3 Weeks, and 2 Days seemed like such a monumental moment in cinema, but the Romanian New Wave never got the attention that the Korean New Wave did. When people were making best-of-the-decade lists in 2009 Nolan's Memento was always popping up but I never seem to see it talked about the same way.
One of my coworkers shows Memento in his psych class and it blows the kids fucking minds. The more I think about it, we are showing some solid movies across the board. The official film teacher shows Godfather 1+2, Blazing Saddles, No Country, There Will Be Blood, Moonlight, Prisoners (havent seen that), The Exorcist and more I show most of Nosferatu & Caligari, Night of the Hunter, Psycho, Night of the Living Dead, Halloween, Texas Chain Saw Massacre and Scream plus Dazed and Confused, The Breakfast Club and (ehhhh) Perks of Being a Wallflower. If I have time I show Hoop Dreams My english class watches Stand By Me. Juniors watch Shawshank and Doubt.
I feel like (thankfully) “Boondocks Saints” was a huge movie in the 2000s and fell off pretty hard with younger generations.
A lot of awards films would make the list, but one I kept thinking about was Beasts of the Southern Wild. So much buzz and attention, but now you almost never hear people talk about it.
I feel like that’s almost every Netflix movie, even the ones that end up on top 10 lists and awards consideration.
